Taipie, Taiwan – A government policy in Taiwan has made it more difficult for transgenders to get an ID, creating panic in the community. The policy, which went into effect last year, stipulates that female-to-male transgenders cannot get an ID card that identifies them as male unless they have undergone all three parts of gender reassignment surgery.
Transgender rights organizations in Taiwan have asked the government to withdraw the policy.
